.....You know, I'm quite picky at how my King Arthur is portrayed on screen (with the possible exception of Monty Python :-)). My nose goes up in the air whenever I watch a Shakespeare adaptation (EDITED, OMG!!!). And watching Tolkien interpretations usually makes my stomach crawl.

.....But, for some reason I'm looking forward to the upcoming Robin Hood movie. Go figure. With Russel Crowe, none-the-less (and I'm certainly NOT a fan of Russel Crowe).

.....The only reasons I can figure is that I grew up reading many different re-telling of the legend and that I was really young when I watched in delight as Errol Flynn battled Basil Rathbone for the heart of Olivia DeHaviland. :-)

.....So, if Errol Flynn had played Aragorn, would I have liked Peter Jackson's poor attempt at Tolkien, better? Something I'll have to ponder I guess. :-)
